Yeah, the original mythology is so convoluted at this point it's like asking "should I read a Wolverine comic"? They rebooted his origin so many times you can completely ignore all of it and hop in basically at any point.

Having said that, the original run, specifically the first 6 seasons, are some of the best TV in history. So watch it at some point if you get a chance.

Fred you post your thoughts on the first episode yet ?

A great example is Dreamland 1 and 2. Those are technically considered mythology episodes, but they had a very MOTW feel to them, and I think Vince Gilligan actually wrote those. I'm sure Hex knows.

Correct. He wrote "Dreamland" 1 and 2. That's also why he got Michael McKean for "Better Call Saul".

As far as the rest of your post, I agree. Although I'd even say 90% of the best episodes are MOTW. I'm about to watch the first ep right now, but I'm :dahell: that people are saying this shouldn't have came back based off a myth arc episode. Those were always hit or miss. And true to form, critics are saying the first ep (myth arc) is :ld: while the next two (MOTW) are good to classic.
